  1. @Zeiss Ikon@KerikBalm@EpicSpaceTroll139 I won't quote the replies for neatness sake. 1) Yes, this is on a PC, Windows 10 2) Yes, it was heavily modded, but this has been happening at different times with different mods. I can't tell which mod was causing this. Maybe KJR but I need it for my larger ships. 3) Yes, I use autostruts, but without autostruts my larger ships just break apart. Although, this time it happened to a tiny lander. What is interesting is that if you keep switching between ships, each time they're disfigured differently, they can even return to normal or mostly normal state. There was one theory that these Kraken attacks happen if you leave an ISRU or nuclear reactor running, then save the game and reload it. But this time I simply switched between ships and my lander got mangled. The point is that this by itself would be workable. I could try to figure this out, change the way I build ships. But there are other bugs in the game with the memory stutter and sudden FPS drops being the worst. I already stopped playing the game before 1.3 then came back hoping the game would behave better. I got 500+ hours out of $15 I paid for the game so I'm not complaining, I can't deny that I did have fun. But I have a tendency to build large, complex ships and the game just can't handle that. @NISSKEPCSIM - thanks, but most were only for show. Most were unplayable due to low frame rate.
  2. Today. I said farewell to KSP and uninstalled the game. I tolerated the bugs hoping they would get fixed, but I've just grown too tired of my ships randomly twisting and exploding after I've put an hour into a mission. 1.3 didn't fix my main issues with the game: stutter and random ship disassembly. Time to do something else. Cheers all. It's been fun.
  3. @linuxgurugamer Huge thank you! I was missing this mod in 1.3.
  4. The unofficial version works for me with 1.3. My ships no long behave like wet noodles. Thank you!
  5. I also noticed that mine is huge, but I don't really care enough to figure it out. My Kerbals simply require more sunblock. You could try resizing the PNGs?
  6. Maybe not actually the first one - hard to remember - but it's the first one in my KSP>Images>01 folder.
  7. Also "Fly safe" is used in Elite and possibly many other space and flight games. I don't see why this has to be a reference to Manley. It's a common phrase.
  8. I used 1.2 until last week. I was just waiting for my fav mods to be updated. I'm still missing couple of other mods, but not crucial. 1.3 does not bring much indeed but I find that 1.3 has less stutter. Even though there is no MemGraph for 1.3, the stutter isn't as bad as in 1.2. I also appreciate the lack of seams, they were very annoying.
  9. Because without mods I can't plain KSP. I was actually going to return it before I discovered the mods.They complete the game. I currently have 56 mods installed with 1.3. And most of these are considered necessary for me to play the game. So I can finally play 1.3! Thanks to all the modders! Too many to list. if you care here is the list of my current mods. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14471718/forumstuff/ksp/KSPMods1.3.txt
  10. That's what I was thinking. If the brakes are placed the wrong way, too low they should negatively affect stability. But if placed high up on a long ship would work better and perhaps prevent the ship from flipping over from atmospheric drag, assuming the actuators are strong enough. I think if the brakes were modeled realistically it would add some interesting design options.
  11. I think the devs had not expected KSP to be such a hit and did not foresee such a massive mod community to follow so they did not code the game with all that stuff in mind. Stock ships with 30-50 parts work fine. But 100+ part ships with few landers docked plus planet mods in the background bring the game to single digit fps on fastest machines. Then you have the Kraken, randomly exploding stations, etc., the game clearly can't handle it all. I've built some gorgeous space stations that were basically a slideshow good for screenshots Some exploded when I reloaded the game. IMHO, it's time to stop updating KSP and it's time for KSP2 with a modern engine. Or perhaps KSP Remastered with proper MT and CUDA/Physx code.
  12. They seem to work the same either way anyway. I just find the "wrong way" looking cooler.
  13. Yeah, when my KSP was updated to 1.3 and I had to remove all mods only to find out that I don't know how to play a stock game and that stock game kind of sucks without mods.
  14. Here is module wiki. Although, I have not found the two OP asked about http://wiki.kerbalspaceprogram.com/wiki/Module
  15. I heard a class action lawsuit is coming up. Kerman, Kerman and Kerman law firm has been hired.
  16. No, that's Elite Dangerous where most action happens on the forums and on Youtube.
  17. Ah, got it. I extracted the sunflares from an old version of SVE: .All-In-One.v1.1.6 The author must have changed this. I don't like the new sunflare. Anyway, thanks again - I got my sun back PS. I just swapped the PNGs, I didn't edit the file.
  18. @Fulgora: great find, thanks, it was bothering me too. Although, the Sun still doesn't look the way I'm used too and I can't remember which flares I used. This is how it used to look like:
  19. I think, I actually had a nuke, but not the largest one. I needed more batteries indeed to buffer. I ended up lowering the power usage anyway.
  20. That does not benefit me and adds a layer of complexity. I don't foresee the need to change languages. My native language is not supported anyway so English is all I'm interested in.
  21. KSP performance has always been abysmal. Lag, stutter and FPS dips are just facts of Kerbal life. I think we need to give up any hopes that it will ever be fixed. Use fewer parts, mods and fewer ships. Try SSTU. Although I like to build my own ships down t every detail so SSTU takes some fun off of the game. But if you're the type who enjoys complex missions then SSTU will help. I have watercooled 6700K @4.6GHz and, also watercooled" GTX1080 and most of my creations give me FPS under 20. I pretty much gave up on doing any complex missions and just treat KSP like a box of Legos to build stuff, but I hardly fly anything due to poor performance.
  22. The new LOC syntax is a major pain in the butt. I used to be able to open a part file and read or edit the description, title, etc. Now you have to look for it in a separate "wall of text" file. It's a mess that I see no benefit in. Can it be ignored? I was waiting for the update to start with some modding but this is a total turnoff for me.
  23. LOL, I fund the EC usage to be ridiculously high.But Nertea thoughtfully included a patch file to change the specs of all engines in that mod. The first time I used one of these engines it sucked all the power in the ship in seconds.
